This is the Reprint edition of the Special Issue “Inclusive Smart Cities” published in Smart Cities by MDPI. This Reprint compiles 14 scholarly articles, including 1 editorial, 4 review articles, 1 project report, and 8 research articles, covering a wide range of relevant topics in inclusive smart cities. The collected articles show that inclusivity is both a guiding principle and a practical necessity for sustainable urban transformation, ensuring that marginalized voices are heard and that digital innovation benefits all. By critically assessing governance models, citizen participation, design practices, and emerging technologies, the collected articles underline from micro, meso, and macro levels that inclusive smart cities are not only promising but achievable through deliberate, collaborative, context-sensitive, and multi-level approaches. As cities worldwide continue to adopt smart solutions, the insights from this Reprint will provide a foundation for researchers, urban planners, policymakers, and innovators to co-create urban environments that are technologically sophisticated, socially just, environmentally friendly, and most importantly accessible to everyone.
